US faces mounting logistical crisis as allies reject Trump’s pleas for help in Iran war – Report
The logistical strain on American forces continues to intensify as the war shows no signs of de-escalation.
As the war against Iran enters its 12th day, the US military is reportedly struggling with severe shortages of air defense missiles in the region, according to an informed military source.
Through a source within the US Army with direct knowledge of American military operations, the report said, an assessment was conducted regarding US logistical efforts to transfer weapons from strategic locations around the world to the West Asia region.
The source revealed, according to Press TV, that US forces are racing to transport weapons from other global strategic theaters to the region amid rapidly dwindling resources, a direct consequence of Iran’s powerful retaliatory strikes under Operation True Promise 4.
The emergency redeployment comes as all Iranian drone and missile strikes in recent days have successfully struck their targets, both in the occupied territories and at US military bases across the region, exposing critical gaps in American air defense capabilities.
These setbacks have prompted US President Donald Trump to urgently appeal to European and Southeast Asian allies for assistance, only to be met with widespread refusal, the source noted.
According to the assessment, regional stockpiles of US air defense missiles have been severely depleted, leaving existing systems unable to intercept ongoing retaliatory missile and drone attacks by Iran and members of the regional axis of resistance.
In response to the mounting crisis, Trump has launched an intensive diplomatic pressure campaign, placing telephone calls to leaders of several European and Southeast Asian nations. During these conversations, an angry US president expressed deep frustration over their reluctance to join the war effort.
He demanded that allies dispatch their warships and deploy US-made radar systems to assist in intercepting Iranian and Resistance Axis missiles.
The response from allied capitals, however, has been overwhelmingly negative.
According to the military source, only one leader, facing intense domestic pressure from their population and political parties, agreed to consider the request.
Three other countries flatly rejected Trump’s appeal.
The diplomatic rebuff exposes growing international reluctance to become entangled in the widening war, which was imposed on Iran on February 28 following the assassination of Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and several senior military commanders.
Military analysts suggest the refusals reflect broader concerns among US allies about being drawn into a protracted war with unpredictable consequences for global energy supplies and regional stability.
The logistical strain on American forces continues to intensify as the war shows no signs of de-escalation. Iranian armed forces have so far launched 37 waves of missile and drone strikes against the Israeli regime and US bases in the region.
Reacting to the Press TV report on its comment section, Jamah said to the Arab World it is, “A rare opportunity to pulverize all US occupation bases in the region, don’t waste this golden chance!”
“The resistence forces should bulldoze whater is left of these bombed bases so no trace of them remains,” another contributor said.
Other reactions across the section are as follows: “Opportunity was set in stone 79. If there was no IRepublic the Zionist Brits Israel US would have owned Iran”
“Iran holds all the cards (they always did). Iran, the nation and its armed forces – superior to the immoral and cowardly US military – have, in their unity and strength and resolve have inflicted the greatest military defeat in the US history – in just twelve days.
“The US tried to throw in the towel after just a few days, but, Iran, completely self-assured in its military capabilities and in the full backing of the Iranian nation – their resolve, unshaken by the US and Zionist regimes terrorist tactics against them – Iran was having none of it and now have the opportunity to deliver the US greatest strategic defeat in its history – the loss of its military footprint in West Asia and its attempts at influencing, using and abusing regional Arab states, for its own malign goals,” Mark said.
Salim said, “I bet the world wants the US to collapse.”
“And NATO MORE SO…. Sure bet.”
Hasan: “Keep doing the good job. Do not accept any US bases in the region. No more US presence in the Persian Gulf.”
Uncle Martha: “Jews have caused enough trouble over the centuries. soon there will be no more jews.”
Francis: “I am praying for another Adolf Hitler to emerge.”
Mark: “The US can be kicked out of West Asia – permanently. If the US wants to strip its missile defences from its own military bases, in a futile and foolish attempt to shield its Zionist regime (which highlights Netanyahu has Trump by the legs). Trump will literally let the US’ significant military assets in West Asia be systematically destroyed by Iran’s increasingly powerful retaliatory strikes. The US ABM network in West Asia has been stripped bare, and US forces are now fully exposed.
“The US has already lost the battle. It is up to Iran now, who holds all the cards, if Iran wishes to crush the US strategically – once and for all. Iran could declare to all regional states that the US, as an instigator of war and instability – is no longer permitted to occupy this region. Any region which allows US bases, will continue to face retaliatory, self-defence strikes on those bases – as long as the US tries to stay put. The US cannot be talked out. Blow them out.”
Christian Warrior: “The ZOGnald bows down to zion and israel. He is an epic loser and failure. People in the west reject him. Soon he will stand alone with AIPAC and we the people are going to them him down. We’re still at the waking up stage but its coming for of them.”
Samuel Kimani Njoroge: “Trump started the military aggression. Now he should be responsible for whatever he started? Let him carry his own cross?”
Mark: “For the Zio compromised US President, it is Zionist ‘Israel’ first, and US interests across the world – last. The US, through Trump, is placing its entire global strategic position at risk – by denuding its weapons stockpiles in other theatres, especially its global shortages of ABM interceptors.
“Trump is doing the best part in inadvertently dismantling the US own war machine. First, the US radar network in West Asia, its military bases, depleting its interceptor stockpiles – all in a futile attempt to shield its Zionist regime.”
Sima: “The American deep state is controlled by the bankers, this war would not happen without their approval, iran should kill the bankers, zionists dont control the military.”
Andrew K: “US cannot go it alone. Everywhere the US went to war, it always had a supporting cast of vassals and pathetic tag-alongs. This time, US doesn’t because the vassals have been exhausted with their ukrop support.”
Francis: “No let up Iran. Hit Israel and America hard. Hit them where it will hurt them most. Do to Israel what Israel has done to Gaza.”
United thieves: “Everything that they have stolen from Iran, they must return without a scratch, along with their thieves.
“Every operator of theirs who has destroyed buildings and murdered, must be handed over to Iran.
Nordica: “Long live the unity of Middle East regions, as each and one of them if divided could face the fate of Libya.”
Mark: “These are seismic historical events, where, a fatally (for the US) compromised US President, is leading the US, the American people, its strategic interests to absolute ruin.
“If the US government was not so corrupted and infested by Zionism, Trump would have been removed – long before now. Strategically, he is a golden goose for the region in terms of scoring countless own goals against his own military. US forces have him to blame for Iran’s retaliatory missiles and drones raining down on them, in exercising Iran’s legitimate right to self-defence under Article 51 of the UN Charter.
“Despite the Zionist-US hold over MSM, in trying to falsely portray a fake narrative of US bombs hitting Iran, supposedly to equal ‘Iran on the ropes’ (the fake narrative in June), these fake ‘reports’ fail to mention that bombs falling on residential areas. This is all the US knows, bomb indiscriminately and hope the Iranian people will somehow ‘collapse’. The US is ignorant to Iranian history and civilization. Far older than the US creation through genocide.”
